About the Training
Are you planning to earn your LEED Green Associate professional credential? Join this training to kickstart or enhance your study process. The curriculum is designed to cover the segments of the Green Associate Exam and to lightly cover the AP specialty exams. It will be a fast-paced class for real estate professionals, architects, engineers, and anyone else interested in green building practices and LEED. The majority of attendees have little previous knowledge of the LEED rating system, green building operations and green building construction.
In April 2025, the U.S. Green Building Council launched LEED v5, the newest LEED standard. The Green Associate professional credentialing exam is currently aligned with the LEED v4 standard. Take the exam now to ensure you are credentialed under the current standard before LEED v5 rolls out!
